I thought I'd let people know about a site I found last night. Wang Chun
Wen was a featured artist in a back issue of Ceramics Monthly (April 97)
that I found floating around my old school's studio when I dropped by last
night. I did a search on his name when I got home, and found the following:
www.wangchunwen.com
There are no glaze recipes provided, and most of the links are in Chinese,
but the glazes and pots speak for themselves. Pots whose forms beg to be
held and caressed, with glazes almost perfectly matched to form. Truly a
site/sight for inspiration!

Superb glazes, I really like the explanation of the term "tenmoku" on the
About the Artist page. I was unaware of the origins and like many I think,
thought it referred to a glaze type (iron saturate) not a place of origin.
This would explain the confusion about green glazes being called tenmoku.
